Coppertoof Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Burncross is a very quiet area, have a look on crime mapping to give an idea of whats happening locally. My partners parents live there and its very quiet and nothing much happens. Tends to be an over 50 area in general, but a few younger people are moving in now. Its very nice indeed.

Doom Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 My Grandparents used to live on Bracken Hill many years ago. Back then it was certainly a very nice and quiet area to live, I can't imagine it's changed much since then. Regards Doom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitsmoorlad Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 (edited) can anyone tell me what Burncross is like please. Just that Ive found a house we're interested in, but wanted to see what the area was like first. It's a lot better than a lot of places. My dtr, son in law have lived their for about 12 years and the most trouble they've had was an old lady objecting to my grand children playing on the street outside her house when it was sunny. It was all settled when my daughter hired a tank and flattened the lady's house, and now the children play on the flattened area. (the last sentence wasn't true).

HarryFlint Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 its OK but transport links to town are bobbar. Yes there is the train but its a fair walk from Burncross and the buses take an age to get into Sheffield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
